Abstract
Extensive alpha -decay studies of the very neutron deficient isotopes Po-19 1, Rn-195, and Rn-196 have been performed at the RITU gas-filled recoil sep arator. The recoil-alpha-(alpha) correlation technique and the alpha-gamma coincidence technique have been utilized to unambiguously connect the obser ved alpha -decays to proper nuclei. Illustrative examples oil how the alpha -decay can yield spectroscopic information on the nuclei studied will be p resented.
